A23 camera problem

[GillB1]

I'm having problems with the colours in photos taken on my A23. I need to take photos of book covers for my website and I need the colours to be accurate however the camera is changing them eg a bright primrose yellow is pale grey in my photo and a dull dark red has become bright.
I've done a few things recommended online such as turning off Scene Optimiser and auto HDR but it's made no difference at all.
Basically I want the photo colours to be exactly the same as the book colours not the colour the camera thinks I want.
I would be grateful for any advice.

It isn't possible as the camera doesn't see what the human eye can https://www.quora.com/Why-is-it-impossible-to-get-accurate-color-from-cameras

Thank you for your quick response. But surely there must be a way to get it closer ... changing bright primrose yellow to a pale grey/white can't be right. 
On my previous phone (Honor) it changed the shades of a colour slightly but not the entire colour.

Hi. I would consider adjusting the white balance and see what happens https://r2.community.samsung.com/t5/Tech-Talk/White-balance/td-p/3873659

Thank you so much, that certainly makes a difference ... I can get the yellow to be yellow. It's a deeper yellow but at least it's not white/grey. It'll be annoying if I have to do it on every photo, but maybe I can use it only when the colours look really bad.

my camera has disappeared from my home pagw icons on galaxy A23 mobile. It is there in the list of apps. How do I restore it please?
